Well, I am not a Chemistry student OR a science student at that. But it just so happen that I am going to leave Singapore tomorrow and am.. well, staying up late, as late as ever and am looking for some.. Entertainment. Have been watching lots of shows and such. That was when I came across this.. Joke. Sit back, read and enjoy.
Well, this was a question posted by a professor to his students. Be amazed by the answer XD
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today.
Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.
This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you," and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."

Hey hey.. I actually thought of writing an entry of recounts today as per normal.. But I do not know why I don't feel like doing so no more =/ Hmm.. Instead I'll just give you guys this okay.. It's a song that I so love.. Haha! It's really soothing during the examinations period XD
The title of the song is Miracle sung by Howl.. I'm sure that many have heard of this song before. Well, for those who are not into Korean stuff.. This may be new to you. ^^ Just.. Sit back and enjoy okie! :)
LYRICS:
Korean 그려봐 상상해봐 우리의 가슴 속에 숨어 있잖아 이제 영원히 눈부시게 날아가는 저 별의 마법을 믿어 사람들 속에서 휩쓸려가는 얼굴들이 모두 같아 보여 지금 내가 있는 이 시간이 어딘지도 모르게 돼 하지만 눈을 감고 귀를 기울여봐 길을 잃어도 하늘에서 속삭이는 별의 목소리를 찾아봐 그려봐 상상해봐 우리의 가슴 속에 숨어 있잖아 이제 영원히 눈부시게 날아가는 저 별에 소원을 빌어
이건 아니라고 날 다그쳐도 언제나 난 누구의 탓을 해 지금 이런 것이 우리들이 꿈꾸던 그건 아니잖아 희망의 숫자만큼 실망도 늘겠지만 그래도 우리 내일을 생각해보면 물러설 수는 없잖아 그려봐 상상해봐 우리의 가슴 속에 숨어 있잖아 이제 영원히 눈부시게 날아가는 저 별에 소원을 빌어 실망과 상처로 변해버린 내 모습을 바꿔가 이제야 모든 것 다시 시작해 내 손으로 그려가 나의 꿈들을 믿어줘 맘을 열고 조금은 힘들어도 부딪힐거야 이제 닫혀진 문을 향해 우리만의 미래를 그려봐 상상해봐 우리의 가슴 속에 숨어 있잖아 이제 영원히 눈부시게 날아가는 저 별에 소원을 빌어
Draw it, imagine it, It's hidden within our hearts Now the star that’s flying brilliantly, eternally, trust its magic The face inside people that get swept away all look alike This time that I have right now Doesn't even know where it is But close your eyes Listen carefully, even if you lose your way Search for the voices of the stars that are whispering from the sky Draw it, imagine it It's hidden within our hearts Now the star that’s flying brilliantly, eternally, pray for your wishes
Even if you insist that this is not it I'm always at fault for someone else What we're doing right now Isn't what we dreamed of As much as hope's numbers Even though we may feel disappointment Still if we think of tomorrow We can't just stand around Draw it, imagine it It's hidden within our hearts Now the star that’s flying brilliantly, eternally, pray for your wishes Having changed due to disappointment and scars My form changes now Start everything over again Draw my dreams with my hand Trust me, and open your heart Even if it's a little hard, I'll face it Now towards the closed doors For our future Draw it, imagine it It's hidden within our hearts Now the star that’s flying brilliantly, eternally, pray for your wishes

Hmm.. Let's see.. Ever since that day, I was pestered. -_- Was told great many stories.. Some of the same story but in different accounts. Now I'm seriously wondering which is right and which is is not but heck, I decided that I'm just gonna forget about it :) hehe it doesn't concern me anyway.
Inside I'm tired and so I'm gonna freeze up. Damn. Even new people are telling me that they're tired. Well, haha, if you're tired, what about me? Sometimes I really don't get it. What you do, you may not be treated justly but just wait and see.. The future may be brighter than you think. :)
Oh yes, I met Eric's sister ^^ Meme Patricia ^^ teehee!! Immuutt~ You know what? The first time I met her, she was always clinging onto Eric! Awww!! How cute!! Teehee~ How I wish I could have such a close relationship with somebody :) But gee, haha I'm always pictures as a self-sufficient-girl. Okay, now, that is correct after all =/ Haha! So what can I say, huh.
Sigh.. I seriously wonder if I can call them family, cuz seriously I think that they are not there yet =/ Not as close as the peepz that I knew.. I guess time changes endlessly huh? The world that I knew is not the same as the one that I know right now. Same goes to the people that I knew - not the same the ones I just knew.
Seriously speaking, I've never felt some of the feelings that I felt these recent years. Why? Hmm.. I'd say that it's because my life in the past was far more simple. I would love to have a simple life again. Simplicity is sometimes the best. However, having been through these, I guess I'm tougher. Now I know the feeling of Pity, Betrayed, Helpless, Hopeless and Useless. Haha! Not bad, huh.
i gotta thank those who taught me these.. Umm oh, there's another one actually.. Unfairness. In the past, I thought that no matter how unfair a thing is, it COULD be fair in a way or another.. But well, thanks to.. Some people, I finally realises that unfairness tastes like shit. Well, I haven't tasted shit before, but I bet that it is shit-like.
Whereas for Pity.. Umm.. The feeling's rather odd, actually. It's neither here nor there. I don't know how to put this into words but it really is.. Sad.
Hmm Betrayed? Haha. Since I was much.. Younger (I shall put it this way, cause I'm still young ^^;;), I knew that this feeling is gonna be hurtful. I knew that this is a feeling I never wanna go through. I KNEW that it was gonna take something out of my heart. I KNEW, I KNEW. BUT I dunno why, for some freaking reason, I let my guards down! Dammit. I was really angry at myself. I knew the consequences and I was pretty cautious already, yet, I was fooled. Haha! Thank god I recovered from it ^^ Hehe.. Oh, this is also reason why I dun wanna have a boyfriend just yet.. LOL I think I'm gonna go crazy if I have one.. No, seriously.
Helpless, Hopeless, Useless.. They're under the same group. Well, Hopeless is not necessarily what I felt. It was just there for a moment or two, ya know. But then I thought again and hey! Nothing is hopeless in this world. As long as you keep the Flame of Hope in you, I'm sure that you'll be able to stand up again ^^ Yepz, the flame's still burning in me :) And that brings us to Helpless and Useless.. Seriously, I hang onto my hopes.. Spiritually it helps but physically, it doesn't. That's when I felt really helpless.. Especially with our distance.. I could not do anything from here!! It's too far!! I wished I could fly over, in fact, I wish I can fly over NOW! But I can't.. I'm really so helpless.. I feel so useless! what's the point of wanting to help but not being able to? It's really stupid..
Oh yes, and I finally realises how stupid i am this year. Finally. I bet that I'm one of the most useless person in my family.. Haiz v_v dammit. My results are bad too.. Failed my subjects. Just great. Couldn't even score at least an A or a B3 for my English.. Dammit. screwed up my Mother Tongue like noone's business. Don't even talk about my math. Sheit.
But oh well, since they've past, shall think about the happy things that have been happening :D (of cource, ignoring all the unhappy ones, there's a lot of those actually. Haha! but who cares.. That's it. I'm gonna bury them right behind ^^) So.. welcome SUNNY DAYS!

Oohh.. It's almost one month. I'm currently working on this piece of fictional story. I'm never really the type who writes a novel or something so I guess that it's going to be short as usual :) However, the progress had been halted thanks to the exams. I really can't afford to miss this one man. My marks are really super bad... I'm quite happy that I'm actually able to jump 5 grades from E8 to B3 in math though ^^ teehee! It's really my pride and joy! For the first time :P
Dammit.. The Queen of Slacking is now working hard! Sigh... After being hurt she thought that she'd better off be the same as the one who hurt her, but she was wrong. Every person has their own strengths and weaknesses. Since my strengths are not in that area.. I'll have to say bye-bye to it then! Oh.. I wonder when am I gonna be a genius?
I seriously think that I'm never meant to be a genius. If this is really the case, then I'm really wondering right now.. Just what the HELL am I good at?! Let's see.. I'm not musically inclined, not creative, not smart, not pretty nor good-looking at the very least, not inspiring, not artistic, not athletic, basically not talented in anything at all. So, WHAT AM I GONNA BE?!
DAMN.
Hmm.. Anyway, I have these really bad vibes that I'm gonna do very very super badly for my End of Year Examination, which is currently in progress.. Tomorrow's Home Economics and I have not a single clue about it. However, my brain's dead right now and nothing can get into it... How the hell am I gonna digest the informations the textbook is gonna give me? Especially with the bad vibes around.. They made me brain-dead even more. I could not do anything just now.
So, I went down... Planned to meet Princess' mom, actually, to lend her my e-dictionary. Half-way there, I met ci Christella. Haha! She was with her boyfriend XD Awww how sweet! And after that, I then went to the busstop to pass the e-dictionary. Then, I called Jenny to come down. The bad vibes were so strong.. Haha!
And Yey! She came ^^ we talked and talked until the bad vibes are gone... Oh.. While talking I accidentally spilled some of my own secrets.. HAHA! But it's just Jenny hehe she can be trusted, OF COURSE! But the trust part wasn't my main concern actually. I was more concerned about her reaction. I anticipated a fearful Jenny or a shocked look from her. -_- Damn! DO NOT anticipate, I tell you. Anticipation can give you heart-attacks! Cause instead of being scared, SHE WAS SMILING AND LAUGHING! SHE ACTUALLY LIKED IT! o_O
How WeIrD!! She's sucha weird gurl!! XDXD GAGAHAHAHA but gee that's cool! ^^ Hehe! It's just that, I haven't told her about the other half of that secret.. It's not really the other half actually. It's another story. However, they sort of have connections. :)
Apparently, she shared a story with me which was actually my other secret, totally. But yeah, she still doesn't know and she was still telling me her story happily. Hehe. She was telling the truth ^^
